    D&D General Greyhawk Humanocentricism?

    I know, my friend. It pains me, too. Also, I was horrified when I first heard that term. "That's taking the sweet / savory mix just a bit too far!"

    Spoilers Rings of Power is back!

    Are the blue wizards mentioned at all in the LotR? Or just obliquely in Saruman's comment to Gandalf?

    D&D General Greyhawk Humanocentricism?

    Skyrealms of Jorune by Leker is what you're trying to recall, I think. ;)

    D&D General Greyhawk Humanocentricism?

    Now that you mention it, the only explicitly racially multicultural cities I can think of are Sigil and ... the Eberron city with the floating towers.

    D&D General Greyhawk Humanocentricism?

    I don't know what you mean by tiers in this context, beyond perhaps size. Do you have a reference for this that I can read up on?

    D&D General Greek, Roman, or Greco-Roman Gods

    For me it would depend on how significant the Titans would be. I remember reading a bit about the Titans from a Greek perspective, but never really from a Roman one (save Saturn). If there was going to be interactions with the Nordics, Celts, and Egyptians, I would probably go with Roman as...

    D&D General Greyhawk Humanocentricism?

    Very humanocentric, but humans, dwarves, and halflings are all considered "human". As human as we would consider Neanderthals and Denisovians, anyway.

    D&D 5E (2024) Agathys forever

    I don't think that he's arguing that the spell ends, rather that you don't get the full benefit of the temp HP from more than one source.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    So, then, the outstanding bills are now WotC fees for this action. There was another action about the trademarks, but that was settled with a payout. Maybe the Lake Geneva house will just get signed over, and people in Seattle will wonder what to do with it.

    Astarion From Baldur's Gate 3 Appears in the 2024 Player's Handbook

    That is a great term that I will need to remember.

    Are the instructions for the kit on the Bat in the Attic site? Oh, it's a set of assets. Derp. Nvm

    D&D 5E (2024) Should Goodberry get improve like Cure and Healing word?

    True. We seldom paid any attention to that, since then I had to determine what plants had berries in what season. Which was interesting when I was 15, less so now. Particularly when the players said "okay, this is too useful a spell. We build a greenhouse!" I mean, I like simulation. I read...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should Goodberry get improve like Cure and Healing word?

    Let's see if I remember correctly... Originally, goodberry was a 2nd level spell that created 2d4 berries. each berry healed 1 hp and was a meal. Now, it's a 1st level spell and you get 10 berries, and is sustenance for a day. Wow, they boosted cure wounds... Create food and water is 3rd level...

    D&D 5E (2024) Buffing Int, Wis, and Cha (Mostly Int and Cha)

    I use Charisma for Contacts, people that have the inside line on something and willing to do you a solid once in a while. Also covers the "there's friends, and then there's friends with shovels" concept. It also gives means for hench should players want to go that route. A bit more...

    D&D General My party wants to defuse a war by arranging a marriage. Where's the gameplay?

    Okay, political marriage between the Queen's daughter (party patron) and opposing King's son. Builds an alliance and allows the interesting and semi-secret cargo that the Queen wants to pass by the King's city without issue. Assuming that the children are raised to power and had the expectation...

    Wasn't there some connection between Space: 1999 and UFO? One is the future of the other, or something?

    GMs: Do you have a "Before" race for your setting?

    Indeed. There were the ur-Adan. When the Eldritch Night fell, many different peoples found protect from the powers. Each power became the Patron to one of the different ancestries. They were all adopted by a Patron, changed by the Eldritch Night, or consumed by them. There are the Sorn. Tall...

    D&D 5E (2024) How many combats do you have on average adventuring day.

    That's how it is for me, too. In a city, travelling, on a ship? 0-2, depending on where they are in the arc. In a dungeon, perilous wood, traversing the Great Glacier and exploring the Lost City? 4-9.
